Welcome to Hume-Fogg.
We will not sugar coat it. Parking and transportation are major challenges in the downtown area. Attending Hume-Fogg comes with many challenges and parking is not the least of these challenges. Students and visitors do not have free parking at Hume-Fogg. While there are many discounted options for both visitors and students there is no free parking. The lot behind the school does not belong to the school but is a privately owned pay lot with a pay station.
The PTO Parking and Transportation Committee has prepared these helpful frequently asked questions in hopes of making your trips to school and parking a little bit easier.
Where CAN I park?
Parking in front of the school is not available during arrival and dismissal but if you can snag a spot at another time it is free! Please pay attention to the parking signs and do not block MNPS vehicles that may be in the loading bays, crosswalks, and do not double park on Broadway. Park and grab a parking placard from the desk when you check in. Students may not park here during the day.
Arrival School Zone – 7:30am – 8:15am, Dismissal School Zone – 2:45pm – 3:30pm
Public Library Parking Garage - off 7th between Church and Commerce- most popular for school events.
